Often times, when the stories were published in the pulps, the editors would cut text in order to fit the magazine, as opposed to cutting text because it made for a better story. There were often misspellings, bad punctuation, and other things that crept in at this point, and upon subsequnt publications these mistakes sometimes multiplied. The corrected texts fix many of these mistakes, and also put back text that was dropped due to space. Many times you won't notice, as it's only a line here or there, but in some cases it is entire paragraphs that were cut.</p></blockquote><p></p>
